Salewa Ortles Am Jacket W

The new Ortles Alpine Merino Jacket is named after one of the most popular summit destinations in the Eastern Alps: the 3905-meter-high Ortler – the highest peak in South Tyrol. This lightweight, breathable hybrid fleece jacket has been developed specifically for such alpine (ski) high tours.

The athletically cut jacket is designed based on the body mapping principle, ensuring that different areas of the body are equipped with exactly the right material. Our Alpine Merino Fleece serves as the main material, which is particularly warm, quick-drying, and offers high wearing comfort. Thanks to its high elastane content, the fabric features a four-way stretch. For additional weather protection, the robust, wind-resistant Durastretch outer material on the front and shoulders is treated with a PFC-free DWR finish.

The ergonomic design guarantees high freedom of movement – especially during demanding activities in ice, traditional mountaineering, or ski mountaineering. To protect against abrasion or tears, particularly abrasion-resistant Polarlite Wool inserts with durable Cordura® are located on the shoulders and sleeves. The high collar with soft inner lining and the cuffs with integrated thumb loops provide comfort in windy and cold conditions. The two large zippered chest pockets securely store small items.

The Ortles Alpine Merino Jacket for women is an innovative, functional hybrid wool fleece for all alpine activities.
